How booking works

Book however you're comfortable. Direct is always the best deal.

Our homes are on Airbnb and you're welcome to book there. But platforms add service fees on top of our rate, so booking directly with us is always cheaper, and the savings grow with the length of your stay.

If you prefer

Book on a platform

Instant confirmation, platform protection, and reviews you can read before you book. Platform service fees are added on top of our rate.

Who stays with us

Built around the people who actually book furnished homes.

Travel nurses & medical staff

Our Centralia home is a short walk through Foundation Park to the hospital, with fast wifi and a dedicated workspace. Monthly rates available for 13-week assignments.

Contractors & work crews

Room for the whole crew: real beds, off-street parking, in-unit laundry, and a stocked kitchen so you can eat well and unwind after a long shift.

Families visiting town

Parks within walking distance, a crib and toys on hand, and space to spread out. Guests tell us it beats being cramped into a hotel room.

Relocations & in-between

Moving, renovating, or waiting on a closing? Move into a fully equipped home with a simple month-to-month lease and no furniture to buy.

The photos don't do this listing justice; it's absolutely adorable and was just perfect for our getaway. Want to talk about clean? More like spotless!

I have rented a few places for work and I have to say Katrina was one of the best if not the best host I have dealt with. Very responsive and always making sure the stay is comfortable and like home.

Questions & answers

The things people usually ask before booking.

Why book directly instead of through Airbnb?

Booking directly always gets you our best rate, because there are no platform service fees added on top. The savings add up most on longer stays. You also deal with one person start to finish, and we can accommodate flexible move-in dates and extensions.

How does a direct booking work?

Send a request with your dates and party size. We confirm availability and send a quote, usually within one business day. Once you approve, we send a short lease agreement and a secure payment link, then check-in details before you arrive.

Can I still book through Airbnb?

Of course. Both homes are listed on Airbnb for any length of stay, and you're welcome to book there if you prefer instant confirmation or the platform's protections. Just keep in mind that platform service fees are added on top of our rate, so booking directly is always the better deal.

Can I book a short stay directly?

Yes. Send a request for any length of stay and we'll reply with availability and a quote. If you need a same-day answer, Airbnb's instant booking may be faster.

What's included?

Everything you need to live comfortably: furniture, linens and towels, a stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, high-speed wifi, streaming TV, and free parking. Utilities are included in the rate.

Can I extend my stay?

Usually, yes. Let us know as early as you can and we will do our best to hold the home for you. Direct guests get first priority on extensions.

Ready to book, or just have a question?

Skip the platform fees. Send us your dates and we'll reply with availability and our best rate for any length of stay.
